Why use a Maternity Support?

Most pelvic floor clinicians recommend the use of a maternity support throughout the course of pregnancy.  The rationale for the recommendation is simple:

1. Reduce downward pressure to the pelvic floor to reduce abdominal straining.
2. Proper postural alignment to reduce back, hip and leg pain.
3. Increase circulation to the lower extremities.
4. Supports against umbilical hernia
5. Protect against the need for pelvic floor therapy long after the patients childbearing years.

In this case the old adage is true, “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure!”

The Best Cradle is an orthotic support for abdominal and back straining. Also eases pain from hip separation and pubic symphysis. Moms to be can expect two areas of main support, just underneath her abdomen where you would normally clasp your hands and also where you would most commonly place your hands on your back to reduce stress. 

The Best Cradle supports the weight of pregnancy yet does not restrict mother or child.
